San Jose claimed Leach through waivers on Dec. 1 from the Montreal Canadiens. The 6-foot-4, 220 pound native of Syracuse, New York played his first game with the Sharks on Dec. 11 and got his name on the score sheet with a two minute penalty for roughing. He was a healthy scratch on Saturday, Dec. 12 when the Sharks fell 2-1 to the Phoenix Coyotes.

The 30-year-old was originally selected by Phoenix in the 1998 NHL Entry Draft (5th Round, 115th overall).
